At present, planning and layout of fire station locations in our nation is mainly based on drawing method and grid method with little consideration of spatial distribution characteristics of fire risk in urban areas. Based on this background, this paper combines fire risk assessment with GIS technology and presents an approach to optimizing layout of urban fire station based on fire risk assessment. According to the result of urban fire risk assessment, the approach sets areas with higher potential fire risk as key points of urban fire safety, makes a gradual optimization of potential fire stations with 2-min respond time from fire station to fire scene and the shortest distance from fire station to various fire scenes as the major limiting factor, and finally determines the spatial layout of fire stations. This paper takes Fuzhou in Fujian Province as the study area and conducts an empirical research.
